German carmakers consider black box recorders for self-drive cars

Mercedes-Benz and BMW are among automakers to have developed autonomous or semi-autonomous cars, along with technology firm Google. Installing an aircraft-style data recorder could help to address some of these questions by giving manufacturers and insurers clarity over who is liable when an autonomous car gets into a crash. The issue is being debated by Germany's "roundtable on autonomous driving", a group hosted by government officials.
